Only the 60 GB has built-in Wifi and the other versions don't support USB Wireless Adapters, so you have to make it go through the Ethernet port on the PS3. Your best bet is getting a "gaming" adapter, something like this: http://games.dlink.com/products/?pid=383&#DGL-3420

Good luck.

Ummm...I don't have a Playstation 3, but their site (http://www.us.playstation.com/support/ps3/gettingstarted/s_ps3_gs_si.html) disagrees. I could be wrong and if I am then follow this (http://manuals.playstation.net/document/en/ps3/current/settings/connectwireless.html).

Trade it for a 360.  PS3 online sux anyway.  Plus, they have zero good games that aren't on the 360.
